Just saw this in an e-mail from my father-in-law. Thank you sir!! BEHOLDDDD: The Flexible LED Computer!

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!?

On November 28th, 2008 I wrote an article Mobile Phone Flexible OLED Displays = More Room For Ads “OLED’s are easy to make – all you need is a special printer – and can be used in television screens, computer displays, small, portable system screens such as cell phones and PDAs, advertising, information and indication.” It looks like we’ve come a long way since then…but where’s the real thing?

Since this is an animation, we must rely on a simple YouTube Description for details: “The device of the flexible display allows a new concept in notebook design growing out of the traditional bookformed laptop into unfurling and convolving portable computer. By virtue of the OLED-Display technology and a multi touch screen the utility of a laptop computer with its weight of a mini-notebook and screen size of 13 inch easily transforms into the graphics tablet, which with its 17-inch flat screen can be also used as a primary monitor. On top of everything else all computer utilities from power supply through the holding belt to an interactive pen are integrated in Rolltop. This is really an all-in-one gadget.”

This was all made possible b/c of our little friend, OLED! They have many significant benefits over the traditional Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD): Their flexible, they draw far less power, can operate longer on the same charge and can be much thinner than an LCD panel. Just think…your battery will last longer, you’re screen can be flexible and skinnier than other models.

Organic Light Emitting Diode’s (OLED) are finding their way into our cell phones. OLED’s are easy to make – all you need is a special printer – and can be used in television screens, computer displays, small, portable system screens such as cell phones and PDAs, advertising, information and indication. They also have many significant benefits over the traditional Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD): Their flexible, they draw far less power, can operate longer on the same charge and can be much thinner than an LCD panel.Everything here screams: “PLEASE! PUT ME ON A CELL-PHONE”. Just think…your battery will last longer, you’re screen can be flexible and skinnier than other models. But who would be crazy enough to do such a thing?

I’m glad you asked, b/c Samsung seems to be hot on the trail, being the first to implement these technologies into a cell phone. Oled-Info.com published an article with a video of the new Samsung mobile phone prototype with a flexible OLED display. As cell-phones start to incorporate larger screen technology and faster connection speeds, mobile advertising will undoubtably grow as a result. Check out the video below. Can you smell the ad-dollars??
